Looks like you're making the common mistake of counting all people you disagree with as the same person. In this case they're clearly different - AI proponents and AI skeptics respectively.
I'm calling out the "tech opinionist community" broadly speaking. I don't know if it's the same exact people but it's often the same forums or news outlets.
Yea that sounds like different people. Even news sites can have contradictory opinions and narratives - they should otherwise they're just biased. But it doesn't make it the same people.
